Psalm 119

My soul cleaveth to the dust  *

O quicken thou me, according to thy word.

I have acknowledged my ways, and thou heardest me *

O teach me thy statutes.

Make me to understand the way of thy commandments *

and so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

My soul melteth away for very heaviness *

comfort thou me according unto thy word.

Take from me the way of lying *

and cause thou me to make much of thy law.

I have chosen the way of truth *

and thy judgements have I laid before me.

I have stuck unto thy testimonies *

O Lord, confound me not.

I will run the way of thy commandments *

when thou hast set my heart at liberty.

Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes  *

and I shall keep it unto the end.

Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law *

yea, I shall keep it with my whole heart.

Make me to go in the path of thy commandments *

for therein is my desire.

Incline my heart unto thy testimonies *

and not to covetousness.

O turn away mine eyes, lest they behold vanity *

and quicken thou me in thy way.

O stablish thy word in thy servant *

that I may fear thee.

Take away the rebuke that I am afraid of *

for thy judgements are good.

Behold, my delight is in thy commandments *

O quicken me in thy righteousness.

Let thy loving mercy come also unto me, O Lord  *

even thy salvation, according unto thy word.

So shall I make answer unto my blasphemers *

for my trust is in thy word.

O take not the word of thy truth utterly out of my mouth *

for my hope is in thy judgements.

So shall I alway keep thy law *

yea, for ever and ever.

And I will walk at liberty *

for I seek thy commandments.

I will speak of thy testimonies also, even before kings *

and will not be ashamed.

And my delight shall be in thy commandments *

which I have loved.

My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved *

and my study shall be in thy statutes.
